We pose the recognition problem as data association. In this setting, a novel object is explained solely in terms of a small set of exemplar objects to which it is visually simila...
The Machine Learning and Pattern Recognition communities are facing two challenges: solving the normalization problem, and solving the deep learning problem. The normalization pro...
Active learning is well-suited to many problems in natural language processing, where unlabeled data may be abundant but annotation is slow and expensive. This paper aims to shed ...
Early TREC-style Question Answering Systems were characterized by the following features: (a) the answer of the question was known to be included in a given local corpus, (b) the ...
Conventional image-oriented cryptographic techniques lack the flexibility needed for content-specific security features such as the concealment of confidential information within ...
